VALENTINE'S GIVEAWAY

We have one "Love Potion #9" candle to give away to one lucky reader!  The lovely ladies at Melo Studios were so excited to share this with us and for good reason - it smells amazing!  Plus, all of their candles are all natural and are made with recycled or reclaimed glass so you can feel even better about it!

Good luck!

The Twelfth Day of Christmas Winner!

On the Twelfth (and final!) Day of Christmas PDR gave to Sheryl...a totally awesome set of letter tile coasters from Yard Sale Press.







Sheryl will receive this fantastic L-O-V-E  set of letter tile coasters. Sure, you could also choose to say that it is a "V-O-L-E" or "L-E-V-O" set, but we think L-O-V-E is just a little bit more our style. You could even make it say "O-L-E" by leaving out the "V" or, if you'd like, you can use this as a base set and order other letters to create even more words and eventually your dining room table can be like a game board!  



Bryan, at Yardsale Press, has his Bachelor's degree from Rowan University and currently works as a printer.  He loves his work and will gladly take on any challenges that come his way from t-shirts, to logos, to wedding invitations, and more.  Although we are not sure where this idea to make these coasters stemmed from, we're so excited that he is making them as they are so clever and fun.  Even though it's hard work (Bryan individually cuts, sands, and carefully prints letter (and points!) before putting the finishing touches on them)  we think it will certainly pay off because they are a seriously cool item to have around your house.  In fact, Jen has a few of these coasters and can personally attest to the quality and level of fun it brings to your space.  But, there can only be one winner.  So, if you are not Sheryl, never fear, you can still order your own set of coasters by contacting Bryan at yardsalepress@gmail.com.  Also, be sure to check out his website for additional information!



Thanks, Bryan, for helping to make our giveaway successful.  
We appreciate your support and wish you continued success. 
Keep up the great work!



That completes our 12 Days of Christmas and our 2010!  We hope you all enjoyed this gift giveaway as much as we have and we hope to be able to do it again next year.  Congratulations to Sheryl and to all you winners! And, for all of you who haven't won, there's always next time!



Have a Merry Christmas, a safe and happy New Years, and we'll see you again in 2011.  



XOXO
Jen & Saira

The Eighth Day of Christmas

On the 8th Day of Christmas PDR gave to Hillary (Yes, again!  That's what happens when you comment a lot!)... some adorable cards from Kathryn Kelly and some homemade soy candles by Jane Szumowski!







Hillary will receive these two great greeting cards from Kathryn Kelly.  Kathryn Kelly, based out of Philadelphia, PA, makes a variety of adorable paper goods.  From pretty greeting cards to handmade notebooks, her designs are youthful and fresh. We particularly had been eyeing up the "We've got great chemistry" card and were thrilled when she included this in her giveaway.  Kathryn hand makes and screen prints her cards, journals, gift tags, and more in bold and bright colors and fun patterns.  We think her creativity and simple, but beautiful, designs make her cards really something to desire and we really appreciate her contributing to our giveaway. Be sure to check out her shop and see her lovely nature inspired pieces in her Flora and Fauna sections -- definitely some lovely pieces to add to your stationary collection.






In addition to those great cards, Hillary will also receive some clean burning, soy candles made by Jen's sister-in-law, Jane.  Jane's candles are made with essential oils and smell good enough to eat so you can enjoy things like Cotton Candy and Blue Berry Cobbler without having to worry about the calories.  And, not only do these candles smell amazing, but these are a great example of making the most out of your centerpieces and repurposing glassware as the larger candle is made using a jar from Jen's wedding. These particular jar candles will burn for hours and leave your home smelling like a bakery or candy shop.  Jane currently does not have a shop of her own, but if you would like more information about her candles or would like to special order some please send us an email and we'll be sure to let her know.



Thanks again, to Jane and Kathryn Kelly for their contributions to our gift giveaway.  We wish you success and happiness and a safe and healthy holiday season.



Congratulations, once again, to our lucky lady Hillary.  We hope you enjoy your prizes and we thank you for being such an ardent supporter of Paper Doll Romance.



XOXO

The Fifth Day of Christmas Winner!

On the fifth day of Christmas, PDR gave to Jen (Making it in Madison)... a fun and funky pair of earrings by Heidi Roland.




Jen will receive this fantastic pair of 4 inch, dangly and elegant earrings by jewelry and accessory designer, Heidi Roland.  This ultra light pair of earrings features small pieces of white leather, a delicate gold chain, and small, very real, white feathers. Based out of Philadelphia, PA,  Heidi Roland creates gorgeous earrings for women who dare to be bold and who aren't afraid to express themselves. Using feathers, leather, gold and other natural materials, Heidi creates a look that is truly one of a kind and certainly one that makes a statement. In addition to these winter white feather earrings, we are loving her simple, yet high impact, leather horseshoe earrings that dangle at a dramatic 5 inches and also her long and lovely feather and leather fringe necklaces.  Her expertly crafted earrings are inspired by art, fashion, and free spirited women in a way that is perfectly Pocahontas meets Park Avenue.



Thank you, Heidi, for contributing this gorgeous pair of earrings to our 12 Days of Christmas giveaway and congratulations, Jen, on winning these!



Never fear, dolls!  While this pair of earrings will be on its way to Wisconsin shortly, you can check out Heidi's shop on Etsy for her whole collection and purchase some other great items for yourself, your friends, family, or other bold women in your life.



XOXO

The Third Day of Christmas Winner!

On the third day of Christmas, PDR gave to MEG B.... a lovely assortment of pink items from two very lovely designers,  Zucchini and Co. and Bathtub Jungle.  



It was such a pleasure to meet Melissa, from Zucchini and Co., last week.  Not only are her designs cheerful, romantic, and fresh but she is an enthusiastic and all around delightful person.  Melissa received her BFA in printmaking here in NJ and she is certainly making a name for herself with her charming designs and items that are just perfect for gifting this holiday season. We spent a lot of time gushing over her work from her desk top calendars to her holiday cards, ornaments, and prints.  

Meg B. will receive a whimsical set of all occasion cards from Zucchini and Co.  This set of 6 cards features 2 "Happy Birthday" cards, 2 "Thank You" cards, 1 "Congratulations" card, and one fun little card for just saying "Hello".  Send one of these cards and you'll surely be sending your wishes in style.  



In addition to these cards, Meg will also receive a hilariously funny pair of earrings by Maggie Huth.  In her designs, Maggie states that she strives to, "take the ordinary and make it extraordinary", and this is definitely evident in her shop, Bathtub Jungle.  Her hand cut sterling silver silhouette necklaces are so delicate and beautiful and feature a variety of designs from classic keys and antique chairs to funky tentacles emerging from a lovely old fashioned bathtub.





Meg will receive one of Maggie's favorite items from her shop, this funny little pair of pig head and butt earrings.  You'll find a variety of pairs of these kitschy earrings in all different animals - pigs, cats, dogs, horses, wolves, and more - perfect for you or any animal lover in your life.  These are small little stud earrings (smaller in person than they appear here) with sterling silver backings and would make excellent stocking stuffers this Christmas.



And, finally, Meg will also get a special little pink cupcake ornament courtesy of Paper Doll Romance.



Congratulations, Meg B.! Please email us with your contact information by Friday to claim your gift.



Thanks, again, to Melissa from Zucchini and Co. and Maggie from Bathtub Jungle for donating to our gift giveaway and for supporting Paper Doll Romance.  We wish you a very happy holiday and were so pleased to have been able to feature you and your wonderful work.






XOXO

The Second Day of Christmas Winner!

On the second day of Christmas PDR gave to LAUREN ... a set of screen printed holiday cards from exit 343 design and a vintage, soy candle in Winter Mint by Melo Studios.




Stephanie Harvey, of exit 343 design, is a very fun and friendly artist based out of Philadelphia, PA.  Stephanie received her BFA from Rowan University and her MFA from Penn State. Primarily a printmaker, Stephanie takes inspiration from every day life and channels her artistic talents into unique and remarkable pieces like screen prints, cards, handmade notebooks, and more! She sells a variety of prints and cards in her shop that are vibrantly colored, bold, creative, and, best of all, funny. For example, are you feeling a little left out of all the save the dates and engagement announcements you've been getting lately?  Get in on all that snail mail action and send one of Stephanie's "I am not engaged" greeting cards because..well..why should they get to have all the fun?  




 Lucky Lauren will receive this cheerful pack of Holiday cards by Stephanie Harvey.  Festive red and green are silkscreened onto bright white card stock in a design meant to emulate the look of letter pressed cards. With the unique design and charming gold stitching, these whimsical cards are sure to make someone's holiday merry and bright. 



There's more?  You bet!  We're feeling generous today, so we've decided to also give away a really special item to accompany these cards.  Liz and Olivia over at Melo Studios, in Ardmore, PA, make gorgeous candles that you can feel good about. These ladies strive to live a sustainable lifestyle and their products are made using only earth friendly ingredients. With soy based wax, essential oils, cotton wicks, and reclaimed or recycled glass, these candles are hand poured with mother earth in mind. These candles are fabulous, so much so that they are currently being sold in Whole Foods stores in Marlton, NJ, Philadelphia, PA, and more!





In addition to the lovely holiday cards,  Lauren will also receive this truly one of a kind soy candle by Melo Studios. Liz and Olivia were so kind to allow us to choose an item to give away to you and, after many minutes of touching and sniffing every candle on the table (they were all so great, it was hard to choose!), we finally decided that this was the one for us, minty fresh and perfect for the holiday season.



Thanks, again, to Stephanie Harvey of exit 343 designs and Liz and Olivia from Melo Studios for your very generous donations and for supporting our blog.



Congratulations to Lauren for winning our Second day of Christmas prizes!  Lauren - be sure to email us your address so we can promptly ship these to you.



XOXO
